)Displaying multiple information on tooltip
The first three lines of codes in the code chunk create a new field called tooltip. At the same time, it populates text in ID and CLASS fields into the newly created field. Next, this newly created field is used as tooltip field as shown in the code of line 7.

"Name = ", exam_data$ID,

Overview
- Create animated data visualization by using gganimate and plotly r packages
- Reshape data using tidyr package
- Process, wrangle and transform data by using dplyr package
Basic concepts of animation
- Many individual plots are built and thens stitched together as movie frames, just like an old-school flip book or cartoon.
Terminology
- Frame: Each frame represents a different point in time or a different category
- Animation attributes: The settings that control how the animation behaves
Tip
Before you start making animated graphs, you should first ask yourself: Does it makes sense to go through the effort?
Getting Started
Load the R packages
Importing the data
mutate_at change simple text into factors, used for categorical data with a fixed set of possible values, know as Levels.
Animated Data Visualization: gganimate methods
transition_*()defines how the data should be spread out and how it relates to itself across timeview_*()defines how the positional scales should change along the animationshadow_*()defines how data from other points in times should be presented in the given point in timeenter_*()/exit_*()defines how new data should appear and how old data should disappear during the course of animationease_aes()defines how different aesthetics should be eased during transitions

ggplotly(gg)Notice that although show.legend = FALSE argument was used, the legend still appears on the plot. To overcome this problem, theme(legend.position='none') should be used as shown in the plot and code chunk below.
